Why Japan Still BANS Foreigners After 2 Years | ALSO: Why I'm Cycling 700km Across Hokkaido Right Now!
Added 2022-09-01 03:34:25 +0000 UTCHey guys!
I come to you to from a field in remote North Hokkaido, midway through a painful 700km cycle with Connor from Wakkanai (Japan's most northern town) to Hakodate.
So far it's gone pretty well - we're 300km in and have raised $70,000 for charity (the fantastic Immune Deficiency Foundation).
There'll be a big Abroad in Japan episode out in a few weeks chronicling our struggles, shortly after the final episode of Journey Across Japan, with a Patreon episode giving behind the scenes commentary and outtakes!
In the meantime you can follow us along live on Connor's Twitch streams over on his channel at https://www.twitch.tv/cdawgva
We also had a new video out today where I finally vented about Japan's ridiculous foreign tourist policy amidst a Q&A featuring everything from a 1980's work out montage, to a certain Trash Taste member being kidnapped in the back of a van. Fun for the whole family.

I won't lie my legs are obliterated given we haven't had a real break these last four days. But incredible pain aside, it's been an amazing cycle so far - it's all felt like unfinished business, given the original Journey Across Japan cycle missed out Hokkaido! I really hope we can finish this nightmare and see it through to the end intact.
For now though guys, wish us luck and enjoy the video!

2022-09-01 12:04:27 +0000 UTCThe thing about being overweight throughout your thirties hits home for me, I'm 37 now and fighting to get the weight off, but it's not easy
